🏔️ Nearby Sights

Notable places within about 40 km — shown as straight-line (air) distance, not travel distance

Tjörnin Pond 0.4 km away (air distance)

A circuit of the pond takes about twenty minutes, which makes it an easy break between the museums and shops nearby. Spring and early summer bring the most birds, including Arctic terns and their chicks; you are asked not to overfeed the ducks with bread. In winter the surface often freezes, and locals skate on the ice.

Harpa Concert Hall 0.5 km away (air distance)

Opened in 2011, the building was designed by Henning Larsen Architects together with artist Ólafur Elíasson, who created the geometric glass façade. Its design draws on Iceland's basalt landscapes, and it later won the Mies van der Rohe Award for contemporary architecture. It now serves as the home of the national symphony and the opera.

Sun Voyager (Sólfar) 0.5 km away (air distance)

Made by the sculptor Jón Gunnar Árnason and unveiled in 1990 for Reykjavík's 200th anniversary, it is often described as a Viking ship. The artist himself saw it as a dream boat, an ode to the sun and a symbol of hope, progress and undiscovered territory. The work was cast in steel and sits on a granite base.
